'Body' in the Bible

He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

yet now he has reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and without blemish and blameless before him,

in whom you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, in the putting off of the body of the sins of the flesh, in the circumcision of Christ;

which are a shadow of the things to come; but the body is Christ's.

and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God's growth.

Which things indeed appear like wisdom in self-imposed worship, and humility, and severity to the body; but aren't of any value against the indulgence of the flesh.

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.
